After Jaguars fans attempted to troll Jadeveon Clowney, he responded with toys for kids

Former South Carolina defensive end Jadeveon Clowney got the last word on Friday, and he did so in a beautiful way.
Jacksonville Jaguars fans apparently sent trash cans to Houston’s NRG Stadium after Clowney, who is now a defensive end for the Texans, made comments on Sunday about Jacksonville QB Blake Bortles being “trash.”
The Jags beat Houston 45-7.
That “trash talk” from Clowney, of course, prompted the Jags fans to send the cans. But they couldn’t have possibly predicted what Clowney would do with them.
“It inspired me to fill them and an entire truck with toys to turn a negative situation into a blessing for some deserving women and children,” Clowney said on Twitter.
Just an awesome story — and one that proves “trash talk” isn’t always a negative thing.
Props to Clowney for brightening a few faces ahead of the Christmas holiday:
